Rum Coke History
The origin of Rum and Coke dates back to Cuba in the early 1900s. After the Spanish-American War of 1898, American soldiers stationed in Cuba began mixing local rum with the newly arrived Coca-Cola.
The name "Cuba Libre" means "Free Cuba" in Spanish, supposedly given to celebrate Cuban independence.
Some distinguish between Cuba Libre (with lime) and Rum and Coke (without lime). Over 100 years later, it remains one of the most consumed cocktails worldwide.
